Latest Mxene News

Environmental Clean Technologies says Xenica has secured a worldwide, non-exclusive Drexel University licence covering selected commercial MXene applications. The deal broadens the potential market beyond defence, but commercial revenue still depends on acquisition completion, repeatable production and customer qualification.

Environmental Clean Technologies has produced its first MXene on a US Flash Joule Heating reactor, marking a technical step in its defence materials strategy. The harder work now is proving repeatability, performance and customer qualification while building a separate PFAS pilot.

Metallium has moved its Texas processing strategy closer to commercial testing, recording its first US$500,000 technology-services payment and preliminary PCB recoveries above 90%. The next proof point is whether those results can survive commissioning, product qualification and the funding demands of an 8,000-tonne-per-year operation.

Environmental Clean Technologies has confirmed MXene formation in two preliminary Flash Joule Heating runs, moving its US-focused programme from laboratory theory to physical product. The harder commercial tests remain ahead: repeatability, customer qualification, scale-up and shareholder approval for the Xenica acquisition and second placement tranche.

Metallium has completed a 12-hour campaign using three Flash Joule Heating reactors to process platinum-group-metal-bearing catalytic converter material under reactive chlorination conditions. The milestone advances the company’s scale-up program, but recovery results, product economics and feedstock grades remain unverified.

Environmental Clean Technologies says its proposed Xenica acquisition has gained a defence-market sublicence for MXenes, adding a potential route to customers for its Flash Joule Heating platform. The agreement is not a customer contract, and revenue still depends on acquisition completion, repeatable production and qualification.

Metallium has resolved a key permitting constraint at its Texas Gator Point campus, enabling chlorinated Flash Joule Heating testing to resume ahead of a major September campaign. The company also marks first revenue from its MXene development program and strengthens engineering leadership.

Environmental Clean Technologies has secured A$10.6 million in a placement to fast-track commercialisation of its Flash Joule Heating platform and MXene manufacturing, backed by a strategic acquisition and feedstock supply.
